Law roundup: Man fired up about smoke

A man called the Columbia Falls Police Department to report seeing smoke coming from the middle of a school roof and became frustrated when he allegedly thought firefighters weren’t looking in the “right spot.” When dispatch asked him for more information and his name, he said, “It doesn’t (expletive) matter.” After walking through the entire building investigators determined that he was probably seeing smoke coming from the boiler. 

A woman allegedly jumped out of a vehicle transporting her to a recovery center.

A youth allegedly stole a bottle containing a strawberry margarita concoction from a grocery store and left in a truck with three other occupants. The youth in security footage was contacted by police and banned from all the store’s locations.
